How do i separate covid relief payment when changing status from married filing jointly to head if household?

Did you live apart from your spouse from July 1 through Dec 31 of 2021?  If so, you are eligible to file as head of household.  If not, then you would need to file as married filing separate.

 

If you are claiming your 2 kids and you received the stimulus payments for them, you would just enter the total you received.  If you received it for both kids and yourself you would enter $4,200.
